Tue, 02 Dec 2025 Every pupil to get a hamper of gifts for Christmas

Headteacher Jade Hunter says she has not encountered generosity and goodwill like this before.
Each hamper will contain a mixture of books, toys, hygiene products, chocolates, coats, and scarves. The fundraising effort was led by former teaching assistant Annie Jennings and personal trainer Lewis Wardale. Headteacher Jade Hunter said: "Cost of living is hard for so many people, but there is so much generosity and goodwill out there that I haven't encountered anything like this before." Initially the project aimed to provide hampers for a few families in need, but as funds grew it was decided to make one for each child.
